Laser10 Software

P/N IQL-3100-059

Laser10 software provides the capability for static and dynamic measurement of a machine's linear, angular, straightness, squareness and rotary accuracy.

Features:

  • Automatic data capture
  • Dynamic measurement
  • Universal error compensation
  • New report standards
  • Comprehensive on-line help

The capture of data manually or automatically - For the measurement of linear, angular, straightness, flatness, squareness and rotary performance of machines.

Dual axis - Where one axis is controlled by two drives and two feedback systems, the dual axis option provides the capability to automatically capture data from both parallel axes simultaneously, reducing calibration time and improving accuracy.

Dynamic data capture - For the evaluation of acceleration, vibration, velocity and servo control performance, the dynamic data capture and analysis software is capable of sampling rates up to 5 kHz and contains integrated vibration analysis (FFT). Ideal for the measurement of machine error characteristics such as: pre-load and hysteresis of ballscrew and nut mechanisms, positional stability and encoder performance, and resonance characterization of motors and spindles.

Interface with the other instruments & systems - Use Mitutoyo Digimatic digital indicator to measure axis straightness, axes squareness, axis roll and linear repeatability, backlash and drift tests. Use Mahr Federal 832 Amplifier interface to measure axis straightness, axes squareness, horizontal axis pitch and roll, vertical axis pitch and yaw, vertical axis roll and surface flatness.

Error compensation - Machine performance can be improved with one simple laser test. The compensation packages now include a compensation 'wizard' and progress indicator to make automatic axis compensation even easier. The system will generate the machine move 'G' codes, drive the machine, capture data automatically, and on completion of the test cycle, download via RS232 the new error compensation files to the machine controller. Alternatively, universal error compensation can be used to produce a table for manual input to almost any machine controller.

Analysis output to international standards - Renishaw understands the manufacturing industry is constantly evolving, and its important that the data is captured and assessed according to the very latest standards. They continually support their systems, and the Laser data is analyzed to standards ISO 230-2, ANSI B5.54, ANSI B89, VDI 3441, VDI 2617, JIS-B6330, GB-10931-89.

Comprehensive on-line help - Including full search and index facilities.
